Man City star Ruben Dias 'splits from pop star girlfriend April Ivy due to lifestyle differences'

MAN City star Ruben Dias’ has reportedly called time on his near three-year relationship with stunning pop star girlfriend April Ivy.

The shock news emerged after the Portuguese international appeared to remove all trace of the pretty brunette from his social media.


They separated because of lifestyle differences with Ruben being “more discreet” than April, Portuguese celebrity mag FLASH! said.

The sexy singer had headed back to the UK with her footballer partner after their summer holiday in Greece. Portuguese media say the couple “separated” because of their lifestyle differences, with £64 million Ruben being “more discreet” than “exuberant” April according to weekly celeb magazine FLASH!

There has been no official comment from the Portuguese pair, who started dating at the end of 2018 and went public with their relationship on New Years Day 2019.

April Ivy, real name Mariana Goncalves, has kept up the photos she posted on Instagram of happy times with Ruben, including one taken in Sardinia earlier this summer on the eve of her 22nd birthday.

The stunning WAG moved to London ahead of the coronavirus lockdown to make her name in the music world before Dias signed for Man City from Benfica in September 2020.

The beauty had already made a name for herself in her homeland after a song she composed and performed called ‘Be Ok’ reached the top of the national radio airplay list, as well as the number one in national Spotify, YouTube and iTunes Charts.

'Driving them apart'

She came close to being nominated Best Newcomer in the 2017 Portugal Golden Globes. April, who began playing the guitar from the age of nine, regularly shared clips of her boyfriend on social media.

In spring last year Dias teamed up with his missus and accompanied her on guitar in a video she posted on her Instagram.

The 24-year-old student of soccer revealed soon afterwards April ribbed him about his obsession with football, telling Uefa’s website: “Many times my girlfriend turns to me and says, ‘Oh, you’re going to see another game?!

“And I always say to you in a joke ‘let me read a little more of my book.’ There is always a new opportunity to learn, a part of the game that you can analyse, to see a goal that a team suffers, how the team failed to try to prevent it or to see how it prevented it from happening.

"From a young age, encouraged by my father, I got used to learning something in everything I see and not just seeing the game as a show but as a study material.

"I didn't learn from just one, two or three players. I learned from 10, 20 or 30. I learned from everything I saw."

Their lifestyles, with the footballer being more discreet and contrasting with the more exuberant side of the singer, ended up driving them apart.

April regularly made the top ten of Europe’s most glamorous WAGs alongside the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo’s stunning partner Georgina Rodriguez.

FLASH! claimed in a report widely echoed by other Portuguese media: “The now ex-couple shared a house in Manchester where the singer had moved to be near to Ruben and at the same time try to progress her career in London.

“We have learnt that their lifestyles, with the footballer being more discreet and contrasting with the more exuberant side of the singer, ended up driving them apart. The split occurred some weeks ago, after the summer holidays the pair spent together in Greece at the start of July.”
